The very popular Gozo Ceramics Festival is back for a seventh year, and will once again take place in the beautiful setting of Xlendi Bay.

It promises visitors a night filled with ceramics, art, music and entertainment, with the festival now a highlight of the summer cultural calendar in Gozo.

Ceramic artists, both local and international, as well as skilled craftsmen, will be demonstrating their talents and skills in public, including sculpting, hand modelling and throwing on the potter’s wheel.

There will also be a hands-on area for children to get their hands dirty, this is always one of the popular spots for families!

There will be live fire juggling shows, live firing of ceramic pieces, as well as musical entertainment during the evening, an evening  programme of activities for everyone to enjoy.

The Xlendi Administrative Committee will also be illuminating the area with the magical fjakkolata, when hundreds of candles will be lit around the bay and on private balconies.

Entrance is free and everyone in invited to attend, on Saturday, the 3rd of August, from 7.30pm onwards.
